Break The Chains Festival @ Temple of Boom, Leeds
24-26/8/2018
Well, why not try to squeeze another batch of bands in before the end of the summer? This new festival had dropped like a bomb when announced earlier in the year, to the extent that I took time out of Desertfest London in May to sit on a kerb outside a pub with a pint and await the allotted ticket sale time, grabbing a couple before it sold out in minutes, then returning to the fray. With a big smile at the prospect of a phenomenal line-up of legendary grind, hardcore, and extreme metal, the underground organisers in Leeds really have the contacts and the cahones to put together something special.More
The roving North Wales punk festival returned with much anticipation to its haunt of last year. Improvements and alterations made, but the successful vibe of last year had spread on the grapevine and with another excellent line-up all was set to be bigger and better than ever.
